Happy Birthday darling Jessica on 1-10-2011 Pete - you've done such an amazing and beautiful keepsake for your daughter. You're family are beautiful and it's been an honour to share in a part of what you have and cherish every day. Thank you so much. A baby girl is... eyes that...

I'm sure it will be wonderful - will be good to see the photos too...;) Yeah, they grow up so quickly, it's hard to believe she's almost a year old. Did you decide what to do with the 365 photos of her?

Hey Pete Gosh, she looks so much older all of a sudden... love number 5... she's so gorgeous do you have big plans for her birthday?

awwwwww... they just really made me smile big 4 & 5 - ahhhhhhh... love them! :)

??? IS = Image stabilisation??? When I was at the shop on Friday, they did say to me that I should turn that off when using a tripod as that would increase the overheating. The only time I normally turn that off is when I'm shooting waterfalls, moving stuff... I thought the IS would be...

So, if I were being sensible (which is not so much in my nature when it comes to photography) and being that I am limited on funds (mores the pity, an MPE-65 would get me a photography holiday in ££££'s)- it would probably make more sense to go for the tubes so as not to decrease my working...

oh that's a shame - the video that you took was amazing, really amazing. oh my, I musta learned something since I came to TP - I actually understood all of that :p F96 - good lawd!!!!!!!!! Your photos - especially the hover - are ones I dream about getting - truly incredible - which...

Cheers Neil - appreciate your help! Sorry about your 105.. oh my, you're converting to Canon! <can understand that... I wish I'd gone for the 7D but I now have a bunch of Sony lenses so, gonna have to stick to what I know>

Oh thank you Neil - it would be great to be able to see the rig you have. Bless you for that. Yep, heavy is a prob for me - but I always shoot on the tripod now as I can't keep my hands from shaking nor hold a real heavy camera. I can get close to the bugs (well, in my garden I can and, as...

Hi John, yes, I do believe it is, which is why I don't think I would be entitled to a replacement unless it had gone wrong within the first 28 days. It is being repaired under warranty so it's not a problem - however, if this is a known issue then I don't want it dying on me on day 366 and then...

oh my - there's a lot of us with the same problem - thank you for posting those links - I shall give the chap a call tomorrow and see what he says - mebbe ask for when the Sony rep pops by to give me a call so I can have a chat with him. I'm not sure what my rights are in that the camera is 6...

Thanks Suz - oooh, not heard of the A35. Been told the A77 is good tho! Will have a look around on the www to see if other's have posted about the A33 overheating so that maybe I could ring the shop on Monday - I also seem to have a prob with the panorama function as it often cuts me off mid...

Hi Suz - the 33 just quit mid shoot. A few times it has overheated (I do click A LOT) and a flashing warning comes up on the display - this is usually in macro mode where it's taking 3 consecutive shots. I assumed it's because I go and shoot for a couple hours constantly click click click...

Oh, one other thing... do the tubes work with auto focus... or do you have to get AF tubes or MF tubes? I'm sure I read something somewhere that said if you want AF, you have to get specific AF tubes <see, not a clue - doh>

Thank you so much Neil :) -I had a look thru your shots - FAB - and yep, I can see the detail in your eyes <well, ya know what I mean :D>. I would like to get closer still but without having to literally get so close to subject - I use a Manfrotto tripod but have slightly dodgy hands so I can't...
